It’s Lent and a traditional time to give things up.
However the tempations of the world are great.
If something is bad for us should we just give it up for Lent or for always?
Sounds hard, and we can always find a valid reason to lapse.
The truth is it’s always been hard.
It was hard for Adam and Eve to resist temptation.
It was hard for the Philippians too 2000 years ago.
Paul gave some advice in his letter to the Philippians which Ian repeats and puts into context for us today.
Philippians 3:17 – 4:1
